Darius West Flies at the NFL Combine

John David Mercer | USA TODAY Sports

Darius West is making money at the NFL Combine.

A day after the former Kentucky safety posted the fifth-best bench press mark in the secondary with 19 reps of 225 pounds, West ran a 4.4 second 40-yard dash.

First unofficial 40 time for safety @d_1west25 is 4.40!

West’s time is the sixth-best among defensive backs at the NFL Combine. After early injury setbacks in his UK career, it’s wonderful to see West make the most of his NFL opportunity.
